Need help fixing a table

Hi,

I am the person who edits our schools website. Please note that I did not create it and am by no means proficient in web design.

First off, here's page I'm having trouble with:

http://stjosephwebster.com/school/index.php

The page used to have just a slideshow on it and recently I ceated a table so the slideshow could be on the right and "upcoming events" on the left. I obviously have a problem with the table properties as the right hand portion of the table with the slideshow in seems to change to fluctuate large and small based on the image. I would like to have the size of two "cells" of the table remain stable. Ant help anyone can suggest would be greatly appreciated. I will supply the code as needed...

Thanks for your time

Best would have been not using the table in this case.

A quick fix would be setting the slideshow inside a div, and set width and height style with overflow hidden.

For example:
......
<td>
<div style="width:500px;height:400px;overflow:hidden">
your slide show code here....
</div>
</td>
.........

The home page code has been zipped and attached.

I actually prefer using Google Chrome and it seems to work decent in that and as you said all over the place with IE.

Thanks for your time

width for td is obsolete. also % would not ensure a fixed width.

Okay, I've messed around with it and now for some reason the slideshow does not work? If anyone has a second to take a peak at what I apparently screwed up I would appreciated it.
